Hi Rick, I would appreciate your input. I will be extremely brief. I am converting each vfp form to browser based code. I would like to modify vfp menu to simply show browser based form in a browser rather than the original vfp form. browser based form talks to app via JSON API written using WC. I would like the browser based form to look just like a "window" so to the user pretty much the same as the original vfp form. Can you give me a big picture with regard to how I can use WC to do this?

Don't know if it matters but all web development is in React.

Thanks, John Cook

This has nothing to do with Web Connection and all to do with your client FoxPro app...

You can always ShellExecute() to open a browser off a menu or button click...
